Emma update

Emma is growing so fast. Here are some of the things she's learned to do in the last few weeks:

• grasp her toys (not just a reflex anymore)
• pull her pacifier out of her mouth (can't get it back in yet)
• make cute baby cooing noises
• express her frustration with a new cry, accompanied by kicking her legs
• eat rice cereal (kind of -- more like tolerate it)
• pull herself up to a sitting position (when partially reclined, like in her car seat or swing)
• put weight on her legs
• laugh (daily!)
• turn herself upside down
• sleep without being swaddled
• touch/play with her toes
  

Other milestones:

• she's wearing size 3 diapers (as soon as the 2-3's run out)
• she moved on to faster flow nipples (level 2)
• she's graduated to 3-6 month pacifiers

(I know, I know. This isn't all that interesting if you're not her mom. But don't forget that this blog is a record for me to look back on someday, not just for your entertainment.)

No swaddle:
(Yes, Abby. That's a regular old blanket in her crib!)


















The toe thing:
